Malia doing a good job in carrying Leora at the moment. But Leora can't expect Malia do it for a long period. Leora's had years of experience in keeping us happy. Unless Leora puts more time into training Malia on the fine art of bating for the cams she will fail.
With this new man in Leora's life shouldn't we see a happier woman? Hopefully this will translate into some of her best action as she will be imagining herself being sexually romantic with him.
